Not the OP, but when an investor acquires more than 5% of a stock, they have a limited time to disclose it. Elon disclosed his Twitter stock acquisition too late (20 days after instead of 10) and using the wrong form…
Even if it became illegal, qualified immunity would protect the offical who made the threats, so officials will likely never be personally impacted by breaking the law and so it'll keep being broken.
Western society says that some decisions are only able to be made by people who are old enough. If you think about other decisions like gambling at a casino, joining the army or purchasing alcohol, then it might help…

The best I can find is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluribus_(poker_bot), but it sounds like it was limited to a few demonstrations.
Forgive me if this is a dumb question, since I'm not that well educated about this. Why can't they sue the police department or some similar body instead of the individuals? My understanding is that QI protects the…

I've heard that some minor internet celebrities will call their police department when moving to a new area to warn about potential swatting calls. You could try to do the same, but it's probably hit-or-miss.
IQ might be a better predictor, but the linked paper says it's not a far better one: "The results demonstrate that intelligence is a powerful predictor of success but, on the whole, not an overwhelmingly better…
Hmm, do you think there are some things you can say that would classify as an action you could be arrested for rather than an idea? For example, yelling "Fire!" in a crowded building, offering a bribe, and threatening…

I feel a bit dumb asking this, but your explanation doesn't make it clear to me why you can't think of a bind on Maybe as a flatMap on a List with 0 (Nothing) or 1 (Just) elements. Could you elaborate further on how…
Is this a case of a more specialized tool (with fewer but more focused features)? For example, you can view email in vim, and I'm sure you'd get better performance than Gmail for large emails but very few developers I…
This seems strange. If you view page source on this comments page while logged in to Hacker News, does the source show you as not logged in? When I do that, my source contains the link to my profile (user?id=Forlien) at…
Where do you draw the line for how much you can cut costs and sacrifice a little bit of productivity or retraining? For example, I often see programmers talk about having proper tools to do their job, whether that be…
For what it's worth, I have a counter anecdote. I go to a university where for some computer science courses, your labs are on computers with a Linux desktop environment. Other students seem to do fine in these labs.…
You can add these shortcuts into your browser. On firefox, you can right click on a search box and specify some character(s). I'm sure there's a similar process on chrome too.
At this point, I've set up search keywords in firefox to do this. Now, for example, I type "gi rabbit" for pictures of rabbits. It's nice because they also can be used as shortened parts of links. Eg. "@ john" to go to…

Interestingly, I took this quote to mean both that reported news is biased, but the decision of what events to report upon is biased too. Being a skeptic solves the first issue. For the second, filtering what you read…
